Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Our current commits - also Racanelli thots

4 white guys. The NFL is 28% white.

Pete proving Greg Biggins wrong yet again!!



Anyway, I like Racanelli on D more than O. I like him on O, but the thing that stands out about his film to me is his closing speed to striking power... he is a finisher. Some guys just cannot close, they sort of fizzle out at the point of contact, but this kid looks like Danny Hammer when he gets up on people.

He closes fast and then mauls guys.

I would think he could almost play a hybrid box S for us; something similar to what I assume we’ll do with Asa.

I like him on O, but I’m a little worried Junior Adams is trying to find another Cooper Kupp. The thing I like about him is his size and hands on O, but post-catch he isn’t a super playmaker. His physicality works better on D where he knocks people over; on offense he seems to enjoy contact as well and isn’t quite as elusive.

    Play him on D and give him some red zone reps on offense. Our red zone offense was atrocious last year

    More accurate this way.

    I agree on all counts, with the caveat that he does demonstrate plus quickness in and out of breaks. Not sure if he's Osbourne quick, but he has those quick feet and great body control. Once he has the ball in his hands, though, he definitely has that "big guy running the ball" look. And it's not that he's necessarily looking for contact, and he definitely has great vision to run to open lanes, it's just that he carries a lot of inertia, and it shows. That's not necessarily a knock on him at receiver, though. "You're big and physical" isn't necessarily a bad thing. Nobody minds, say, Hunter Bryant with the ball in his hands. He's just not a guy that you're going to expect huge YAC from. Fine, go get Roman Wilson for that.

    On defense, though? Oh, hell yeah. What I like to see from a defensive player is that explosive last step. I knew Tryon was at least a full star underrated, as you could see it in his film: He'd approach a ballcarrier, get about a yard away, then time and space would warp, leaving the dude on the ground one frame of video later. Racanelli has that. There's no escaping him because of an elite combination of long arms, body control, and explosion in closing. He'd be an absolute monster MIK linebacker after putting on 25 pounds. And he'd be the first MIK linebacker we'd have since before Timu who caught more interceptions than he dropped!...

    Not really, 90% of posters on HH think you're a fucking retard for that take. You've been a meme when it comes to white people for years.

    It's statements like this that make your take on this fucking stupid:


    I like him on O, but I’m a little worried Junior Adams is trying to find another Cooper Kupp


    Wow, I really am worried Junior is trying to find another 2nd round receiver!! God forbid that happens!

    Pretty sure the point is you can’t fit a round peg into a square hole.

    Don’t force things because of a couple similarities.
    This guy is perma-triggered by race shit. White people get like that. Just best to put them in a room, turn on Laurence Welk and let them be.

    Yeah, im perma triggered by calling you an idiot for the last month when you have been saying this shit for 3-4 years.

    Stick to saying it's dumb Adams is looking for NFL receivers.

    Except using your analogy its a round hole and peg. DDY is worried because he "runs like a big man". He is 6'3", so no shit. We can recruit more opera singers and Fullers instead! Said no one ever

    Your gif is funny BUT don’t be dumb.

    There’s my opinion and then there’s the opposite of that opinion.

    To say that every time someone agrees with DDY is due to his cult following is juvenile... I know as I’m very good at juvenile.

    When people disagree, the same “cult”, they tell him that.

    🤣 like to say that was intentional...

    I don’t watch film so I don’t know where this guy is better suited.

    As peterman (see I didn’t say dickman you fuckers crushed my soul with that one) has tried to force things at udub that clearly are Boise state only, he’s had to adapt. He’s done ok with this IMHO but still has some recruiting and offensive kinks to work through.

    My concern is Adams is hell bent on finding his next cooper as peterman has been hell bent on finding his next kellen Moore.

    If the square peg doesn’t fit into the round hole, don’t force it. (Did I get it right this tim?)

    That is all.

    Thanks for talking through this with me rather than downvoting me. I appreciate that very much. I can only take a certain number of downvotes before I kill myself.

    Eh, all the race shit is kind of culty. We all know who the Jim Jones of this narrative is. We're just seeing the same shit regurgitated in different forms from lots of members now. If you disagree, that's fine. I don't want to argue. I just attained omnipresent super-galactic oneness yesterday.

    I feel semi-whooshed and bank handed here. I was very close to cutting hundreds of tiny slits between my toes yesterday due to my excessive downvotes.

    Ok, I’ve removed my black eyeliner and black nail polish.

    I think arguing or disputing differences of opinions at this point is an act of insanity.

    I will do better in covertly (maybe even not at all) expressing my distaste towards my perception of the strategy.

    I don’t know how truly damning that stupid shit on Twitter was but it was apparent it wasn’t one of my finer moments.

    It’s apparent someone (maybe one recruit and one duck fan and one dad) read this bored.

    It is disappointing that I thought this bored was free game for anything but we apparently found the line.

    I digress.

    ✌🏽


    Anyone have their meds dialed in? My bi-polar brain CANNOT handle the ups and downs.

    I agree... with last year.

    Aren’t we in a what have you done for me lately society? The suck until they don’t?

    Maybe that’s just how I think because I’ve spent the last 15+ yrs in sales management.

    I’m not pleased thus far and I think there’s evidence to back up this years current state of recruitment. Missing on a kid that shoulda been a slam dunk, we’ve missed making top 25’s for kids who should be highly interested, and kids that once were intrigued are no longer. My distaste is not race related rather strategy related and whom the strategy appeals to and how we are too stubborn to alter the strategy to appeal to the kids who will get us to the next level, the elite level.

    LIPO, sure but with a frown on my face and distain in my tone.

    And I’m done on this.
